Heinrich Hertz

Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (22 February 1857 – 1 January 1894) was a German physicist who clarified and expanded James Clerk Maxwell's electromagnetic theory of light, which was first demonstrated by David Edward Hughes using non-rigorous  trial and error procedures. Hertz is distinguished from Maxwell and Hughes because he was the first to conclusively prove the existence of electromagnetic waves by engineering instruments to transmit and receive radio pulses using  experimental procedures that  ruled out all other known wireless phenomena.Prof. D. E. Hughes' Research in Wireless Telegraphy, The Electrician, Volume 43, 1899, page 41. See also pages 35, 40, 93, 143–144, 167, 217, 401, 403, 767. Hughes himself said that Hertz's experiments were "far more conclusive than mine". The scientific unit of frequency — cycles per second — was named the "hertz" in his honor.
